PDF: Imprisoned for Psychedelics: Interview with Toby Shone

An interview recorded illegally by telephone between Toby Shone and the leading occultist and psychonaut Julian Vayne, with added vibes from chaos magickian Peter J Carroll. Recorded and transcribed when Toby was imprisoned in G4S Parc, South Wales, on 23hr lockdown.

The introduction is the transcript of a talk from prison that Toby gave at Ozora psy-trance festival in 2022. The interview was recorded by Julian in 2022, with the result that Jules was removed from Toby’s phone list on grounds of “national security” and “conveying an illegal recording outside of the prison”. This interview was thought so dangerous by the British regime that they tried to suppress it, silence Toby and stop solidarity to his case.

After the fall of Fascist Germany, the creation of another totalitarian regime should have been made impossible. The goal was to have a democratic, world society, made up of free, equal and emancipated human beings. Global computer networks, mirrors of reality, which would be accessible to all, would make this dream possible. The euphoria for new, emerging technologies fuelled their hopes. With Cybernetics, System theory and Constructivism being their bibles, they thought of the human brain as an information processing system, which hence could be connected to similar electronic systems.

In personal interviews, this film tells their story, which is also the tale of the birth of the Internet.

It also tells the story of the traitor. The man from within their midst, who decided to turn his back on their utopia; who left the machine and tried to bring it down.
